Real Madrid's Vinicius Junior in action during the UEFA Champions League final soccer match between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid at Wembley Stadium. Robert Michael/dpa Real Madrid forward Vinícius Júnior has issued an early challenge to Bayern Munich ahead of their probably meeting in the Champions league quarter-finals. The record champions beat Manchester City in the last 16 on Tuesday, with Bayern expected to get past Atalanta on Wednesday in their home second leg given their 6-1 first-leg lead.

"Let's get them! " the 25-year-old Vinícius was quoted as saying in Spanish media reports on Wednesday after the 2-1 win in Manchester and 5-1 aggregate success. "It was a very important game for our confidence.

We’ve played well since the start of the season, but we haven’t been in control as much as we were in this tie. " The first leg between Bayern and Real in Madrid would take place on April 7 or 8. The return leg would be a week later, on April 14 or 15, in Munich.
